Money comes from work. This week I interview Brooklyn, a teenpreneur who decided to start her own business at age 14. Here business is called Tropigear where she sells custom handmade dog collars, cat collars, and coats for half the price as the big box retailers. Next time you’re thinking of spending money on your pet, take a look at Brooklyn’s site Tropigear here.

Inside the episode, she shares her why, her how, and what it takes to balance going to school full time, running her business, and being a teenager. Yes, you can take your idea, take action, and generate income – just ask Brooklyn.

The first step to solving your problems with money is to take back control of your money. This always starts with the Budget.

Chris Petrie

Chris (Peach) Petrie is a personal finance expert, money coach, speaker and podcaster.

In 2011, Chris and his family were exhausted from living paycheck-to-paycheck and facing a mountain of debt. They started going against the society standards of misbehaving with money and made the decision to take back control of their lives and money. Within seven months they paid off $52,000, started saving like crazy and began building real wealth.

The word spread fast and Chris started showing friends how to create a budget over dinner. Soon after he started showing their friends how to do the same and eventually Chris started teaching personal finance classes around the community. As the need for the classes grew, Chris launched Money Peach in 2015.

Money Peach was created to help everyday people remove the stress and fear of money by showing them how to save more, make more, and keep more of their money.

Chris Peach has been featured in places like Business Insider, The Huffington Post, Elite Daily, and CheddarTV.

When Chris isn’t at “work” he can be found at the Crossfit gym or riding on the fire truck — Chris is also a full-time firefighter in Phoenix, Arizona.
